OnHostConfigUpdated only applied config-sourced fields (MaxSlot,
HostModel, HostType, DisptWindow) onto a host whose name exact-matched
an entry already in the store. hosts.yaml commonly defines only a
wildcard "default" entry, so a dynamically-joined worker never
received its own config push and MaxSlot stayed at Go's zero-value
forever -- decoupled from the C-side scheduling path, which already
resolves the real value via worker.c's wildcard fallback.
The "default" pseudo-host's config is now cached and retroactively
backfilled onto any registered host with no explicit config of its
own, in either arrival order (config-before-worker or
worker-before-config). The -1 HOSTCONFIG_MXJ_AUTO_DETECT sentinel
(bug-1556) is resolved to the host's real NumCPUs when applied via
fallback, mirroring worker.c's own resolution, so the display shows
usable capacity rather than a bare -1.
